[QUOTE="Electrodave, post: 22306027, member: 343811"] I've been using drop-in coil heads on mechs for years. The first mechs were around in the carto days. Starter kits used to be available with a mech and a coil head tank, or a carto setup. The biggest problem with the older tanks today is that so many mechs have direct to battery connections, and the firing pins on most older tanks (RTA's included) don't protrude, or not far enough to be safe with a DTB connection. But that's fairly recent. My older mechs have 510 connectors, so that wasn't an issue at all. Most newer mods are DTB, the Slim Piece included. But the ProCore is a recent tank, made by a company (Joyetech) that used to make mechs to go with their coil head tanks. That coil head is an amazingly accurate .40ohms. One thing I use regulated mods for is as a handy test fixture. A month from now, that coil head will be between .39 and .41ohms. Anything that can go wrong with a coil head is even more likely to go wrong with a self build. The grizzly incidents that I'm aware of have mostly been RDA's. Haven't heard of someone getting their carotid slashed by a Nautilus lately. [/QUOTE]
